The Beginning is the End kickstarts the story.. Perhaps the story had already started and perhaps the story does not end.. I am not sure I hold the answers..

The story begins with the female character reaching out to a door that will take her to the Marionette House where life size marionettes will make her question what is real and whether she is human at all. The project is an homage to theatre and stylized silent quiet pain. Characters in this lengthy work usually are still as if in the midst of action or effected by previous actions. The sadness and the weight of emotion mostly comes from not drama on the screen but a trauma that precedes.

The Marionette House mints start on KnownOrigin at the tail end of June 2022. The artwork will be presented mostly as 1/1s so that the collectors can own authentic parts of the story. Some mints will be 10 editions to include a wider ownership of the story. Pricing will be standardized so as not to make preferences on the artwork. Text will include this explanation and the main story in each mint. However as per my discretion, I will at times add some additional text in the beginning talking about the artwork, the project or something else. I hope you enjoy the project and bear with me as I take a substantial time to go through it for a period of time. Best, HoT, June 22.
